Form Builder
Fields
Getting started
Field classes can be found in the Filament\Form\Components namespace.
Fields reside within the schema of your form, alongside any layout components.
If you're using the fields in a Livewire component, you can put them in the getFormSchema() method:
protected function getFormSchema(): array{ return [ // ... ];}If you're using them in admin panel resources or relation managers, you must put them in the $form->schema() method:
public static function form(Form $form): Form{ return $form ->schema([ // ... ]);}Fields may be created using the static make() method, passing its name. The name of the field should correspond to a property on your Livewire component. You may use Livewire's "dot syntax" to bind fields to nested properties such as arrays and Eloquent models.
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')Setting a label
By default, the label of the field will be automatically determined based on its name. To override the field's label, you may use the label() method. Customizing the label in this way is useful if you wish to use a translation string for localization:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->label(__('fields.name'))Optionally, you can have the label automatically translated by using the translateLabel() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->translateLabel() // Equivalent to `label(__('Name'))`Setting an ID
In the same way as labels, field IDs are also automatically determined based on their names. To override a field ID, use the id() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->id('name-field')Setting a default value
Fields may have a default value. This will be filled if the form's fill() method is called without any arguments. To define a default value, use the default() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->default('John')Note that inside the admin panel this only works on Create Pages, as Edit Pages will always fill the data from the model.
Helper messages and hints
Sometimes, you may wish to provide extra information for the user of the form. For this purpose, you may use helper messages and hints.
Help messages are displayed below the field. The helperText() method supports Markdown formatting:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->helperText('Your full name here, including any middle names.')Hints can be used to display text adjacent to its label:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('password')->hint('[Forgotten your password?](forgotten-password)')Hints may also have an icon rendered next to them:
use Filament\Forms\Components\RichEditor; RichEditor::make('content') ->hint('Translatable') ->hintIcon('heroicon-s-translate')Hints may have a color(). By default it's gray, but you may use primary, success, warning, or danger:
use Filament\Forms\Components\RichEditor; RichEditor::make('content') ->hint('Translatable') ->hintColor('primary')Custom attributes
The HTML attributes of the field's wrapper can be customized by passing an array of extraAttributes():
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->extraAttributes(['title' => 'Text input'])To add additional HTML attributes to the input itself, use extraInputAttributes():
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('categories') ->extraInputAttributes(['multiple' => true])Disabling
You may disable a field to prevent it from being edited:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->disabled()Optionally, you may pass a boolean value to control if the field should be disabled or not:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin')->disabled(! auth()->user()->isAdmin())Please note that disabling a field does not prevent it from being saved, and a skillful user could manipulate the HTML of the page and alter its value.
To prevent a field from being saved, use the dehydrated(false) method:
Toggle::make('is_admin')->dehydrated(false)Alternatively, you may only want to save a field conditionally, maybe if the user is an admin:
Toggle::make('is_admin') ->disabled(! auth()->user()->isAdmin()) ->dehydrated(auth()->user()->isAdmin())If you're using the admin panel and only want to save disabled fields on the Create page of a resource:
use Filament\Resources\Pages\CreateRecord;use Filament\Resources\Pages\Page; TextInput::make('slug') ->disabled() ->dehydrated(fn (Page $livewire) => $livewire instanceof CreateRecord)Hiding
You may hide a field:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->hidden()Optionally, you may pass a boolean value to control if the field should be hidden or not:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->hidden(! auth()->user()->isAdmin())Autofocusing
Most fields will be autofocusable. Typically, you should aim for the first significant field in your form to be autofocused for the best user experience.
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->autofocus()Setting a placeholder
Many fields will also include a placeholder value for when it has no value. You may customize this using the placeholder() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')->placeholder('John Doe')Global settings
If you wish to change the default behaviour of a field globally, then you can call the static configureUsing() method inside a service provider's boot() method, to which you pass a Closure to modify the component using. For example, if you wish to make all checkboxes inline(false), you can do it like so:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox; Checkbox::configureUsing(function (Checkbox $checkbox): void { $checkbox->inline(false);});Of course, you are still able to overwrite this on each field individually:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox; Checkbox::make('is_admin')->inline()Text input
The text input allows you to interact with a string:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name')
You may set the type of string using a set of methods. Some, such as email(), also provide validation:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('text') ->email() ->numeric() ->password() ->tel() ->url()You may instead use the type() method to pass another HTML input type:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('backgroundColor')->type('color')You may limit the length of the input by setting the minLength() and maxLength() methods. These methods add both frontend and backend validation:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name') ->minLength(2) ->maxLength(255)You may also specify the exact length of the input by setting the length(). This method adds both frontend and backend validation:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('code')->length(8)In addition, you may validate the minimum and maximum value of the input by setting the minValue() and maxValue() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('number') ->numeric() ->minValue(1) ->maxValue(100)You may set the autocomplete configuration for the text field using the autocomplete() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('password') ->password() ->autocomplete('new-password')As a shortcut for autocomplete="off", you may disableAutocomplete():
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('password') ->password() ->disableAutocomplete()For more complex autocomplete options, text inputs also support datalists.
Phone number validation
When using a tel() field, the value will be validated using: /^[+]*[(]{0,1}[0-9]{1,4}[)]{0,1}[-\s\.\/0-9]*$/.
If you wish to change that, then you can use the telRegex() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('phone') ->tel() ->telRegex('/^[+]*[(]{0,1}[0-9]{1,4}[)]{0,1}[-\s\.\/0-9]*$/')Alternatively, to customize the telRegex() across all fields, use a service provider:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::configureUsing(function (TextInput $component): void { $component->telRegex('/^[+]*[(]{0,1}[0-9]{1,4}[)]{0,1}[-\s\.\/0-9]*$/');});Affixes
You may place text before and after the input using the prefix() and suffix() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('domain') ->url() ->prefix('https://') ->suffix('.com')
You may place a icon before and after the input using the prefixIcon() and suffixIcon() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('domain') ->url() ->prefixIcon('heroicon-s-external-link') ->suffixIcon('heroicon-s-external-link')You may render an action before and after the input using the prefixAction() and suffixAction() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Actions\Action;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('domain') ->suffixAction(fn (?string $state): Action => Action::make('visit') ->icon('heroicon-s-external-link') ->url( filled($state) ? "https://{$state}" : null, shouldOpenInNewTab: true, ), )Input masking
Input masking is the practice of defining a format that the input value must conform to.
In Filament, you may interact with the Mask object in the mask() method to configure your mask:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('name') ->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask->pattern('+{7}(000)000-00-00'))Under the hood, masking is powered by imaskjs. The vast majority of its masking features are also available in Filament. Reading their guide first, and then approaching the same task using Filament is probably the easiest option.
You may define and configure a numeric mask to deal with numbers:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('number') ->numeric() ->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask ->numeric() ->decimalPlaces(2) // Set the number of digits after the decimal point. ->decimalSeparator(',') // Add a separator for decimal numbers. ->integer() // Disallow decimal numbers. ->mapToDecimalSeparator([',']) // Map additional characters to the decimal separator. ->minValue(1) // Set the minimum value that the number can be. ->maxValue(100) // Set the maximum value that the number can be. ->normalizeZeros() // Append or remove zeros at the end of the number. ->padFractionalZeros() // Pad zeros at the end of the number to always maintain the maximum number of decimal places. ->thousandsSeparator(','), // Add a separator for thousands. )Enum masks limit the options that the user can input:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('code')->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask->enum(['F1', 'G2', 'H3']))Range masks can be used to restrict input to a number range:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('code')->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask ->range() ->from(1) // Set the lower limit. ->to(100) // Set the upper limit. ->maxValue(100), // Pad zeros at the start of smaller numbers.)In addition to simple pattens, you may also define multiple pattern blocks:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('cost')->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask ->patternBlocks([ 'money' => fn (Mask $mask) => $mask ->numeric() ->thousandsSeparator(',') ->decimalSeparator('.'), ]) ->pattern('$money'),)There is also a money() method that is able to define easier formatting for currency inputs. This example, the symbol prefix is $, there is a , thousands separator, and two decimal places:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; TextInput::make('cost')->mask(fn (TextInput\Mask $mask) => $mask->money(prefix: '$', thousandsSeparator: ',', decimalPlaces: 2))
Datalists provide autocomplete options to users when they use a text input. However, these are purely recommendations, and the user is still able to type any value into the input. If you're looking for strictly predefined options, check out select fields.
Select
The select component allows you to select from a list of predefined options:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('status') ->options([ 'draft' => 'Draft', 'reviewing' => 'Reviewing', 'published' => 'Published', ])In the options() array, the array keys are saved, and the array values will be the label of each option in the dropdown.
You may enable a search input to allow easier access to many options, using the searchable() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('authorId') ->label('Author') ->options(User::all()->pluck('name', 'id')) ->searchable()
If you have lots of options and want to populate them based on a database search or other external data source, you can use the getSearchResultsUsing() and getOptionLabelUsing() methods instead of options().
The getSearchResultsUsing() method accepts a callback that returns search results in $key => $value format.
The getOptionLabelUsing() method accepts a callback that transforms the selected option $value into a label.
Select::make('authorId') ->searchable() ->getSearchResultsUsing(fn (string $search) => User::where('name', 'like', "%{$search}%")->limit(50)->pluck('name', 'id')) ->getOptionLabelUsing(fn ($value): ?string => User::find($value)?->name),You can prevent the placeholder from being selected using the disablePlaceholderSelection() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('status') ->options([ 'draft' => 'Draft', 'reviewing' => 'Reviewing', 'published' => 'Published', ]) ->default('draft') ->disablePlaceholderSelection()Multi-select
The multiple() method on the Select component allows you to select multiple values from the list of options:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('technologies') ->multiple() ->options([ 'tailwind' => 'Tailwind CSS', 'alpine' => 'Alpine.js', 'laravel' => 'Laravel', 'livewire' => 'Laravel Livewire', ])
These options are returned in JSON format. If you're saving them using Eloquent, you should be sure to add an array cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class App extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'technologies' => 'array', ]; // ...}Instead of getOptionLabelUsing(), the getOptionLabelsUsing() method can be used to transform the selected options' $values into labels.
Dependant selects
Commonly, you may desire "dependant" select inputs, which populate their options based on the state of another.
Some of the techniques described in the advanced forms section are required to create dependant selects. These techniques can be applied across all form components for many dynamic customization possibilities.
Populating automatically from a relationship
You may employ the relationship() method of the Select to configure a BelongsTo relationship to automatically retrieve and save options from:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'name')The multiple() method may be used in combination with relationship() to automatically populate from a BelongsToMany relationship:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('technologies') ->multiple() ->relationship('technologies', 'name')To set this functionality up, you must also follow the instructions set out in the field relationships section. If you're using the admin panel, you can skip this step.
If you'd like to populate the options from the database when the page is loaded, instead of when the user searches, you can use the preload() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'name') ->preload()You may customize the database query that retrieves options using the third parameter of the relationship() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'name', fn (Builder $query) => $query->withTrashed())If you'd like to customize the label of each option, maybe to be more descriptive, or to concatenate a first and last name, you should use a virtual column in your database migration:
$table->string('full_name')->virtualAs('concat(first_name, \' \', last_name)');use Filament\Forms\Components\Select; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'full_name')Alternatively, you can use the getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing() method to transform the selected option's Eloquent model into a label. But please note, this is much less performant than using a virtual column:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'first_name') ->getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing(fn (Model $record) => "{$record->first_name} {$record->last_name}")Handling MorphTo relationships
MorphTo relationships are special, since they give the user the ability to select records from a range of different models. Because of this, we have a dedicated MorphToSelect component which is not actually a select field, rather 2 select fields inside a fieldset. The first select field allows you to select the type, and the second allows you to select the record of that type.
To use the MorphToSelect, you must pass types() into the component, which tell it how to render options for different types:
use Filament\Forms\Components\MorphToSelect; MorphToSelect::make('commentable') ->types([ MorphToSelect\Type::make(Product::class)->titleColumnName('name'), MorphToSelect\Type::make(Post::class)->titleColumnName('title'), ])The titleColumnName() is used to extract the titles out of each product or post. You can choose to extract the option labels using getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing instead if you wish:
use Filament\Forms\Components\MorphToSelect; MorphToSelect::make('commentable') ->types([ MorphToSelect\Type::make(Product::class) ->getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing(fn (Product $record): string => "{$record->name} - {$record->slug}"), MorphToSelect\Type::make(Post::class)->titleColumnName('title'), ])You may customize the database query that retrieves options using the modifyOptionsQueryUsing() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\MorphToSelect;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder; MorphToSelect::make('commentable') ->types([ MorphToSelect\Type::make(Product::class) ->titleColumnName('name') ->modifyOptionsQueryUsing(fn (Builder $query) => $query->whereBelongsTo($this->team)), MorphToSelect\Type::make(Post::class) ->titleColumnName('title') ->modifyOptionsQueryUsing(fn (Builder $query) => $query->whereBelongsTo($this->team)), ])Many of the same options in the select field are available for
MorphToSelect, includingsearchable(),preload(),allowHtml(), andoptionsLimit().
Creating new records
You may define a custom form that can be used to create a new record and attach it to the BelongsTo relationship:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Select;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; Select::make('authorId') ->relationship('author', 'name') ->createOptionForm([ Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name') ->required(), Forms\Components\TextInput::make('email') ->required() ->email(), ]),The form opens in a modal, where the user can fill it with data. Upon form submission, the new record is selected by the field.
Since HTML does not support nested <form> elements, you must also render the modal outside the <form> in the view. If you're using the admin panel, this is included already:
<form wire:submit.prevent="submit"> {{ $this->form }} <button type="submit"> Submit </button></form> {{ $this->modal }}Checkbox
The checkbox component, similar to a toggle, allows you to interact a boolean value.
use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox; Checkbox::make('is_admin')
Checkbox fields have two layout modes, inline and stacked. By default, they are inline.
When the checkbox is inline, its label is adjacent to it:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox; Checkbox::make('is_admin')->inline()
When the checkbox is stacked, its label is above it:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox; Checkbox::make('is_admin')->inline(false)
If you're saving the boolean value using Eloquent, you should be sure to add a boolean cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class User extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'is_admin' => 'boolean', ]; // ...}Toggle
The toggle component, similar to a checkbox, allows you to interact a boolean value.
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin')
Toggle fields have two layout modes, inline and stacked. By default, they are inline.
When the toggle is inline, its label is adjacent to it:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin')->inline()
When the toggle is stacked, its label is above it:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin')->inline(false)
Toggles may also use an "on icon" and an "off icon". These are displayed on its handle and could provide a greater indication to what your field represents. The parameter to each method must contain the name of a Blade icon component:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin') ->onIcon('heroicon-s-lightning-bolt') ->offIcon('heroicon-s-user')You may also customize the color representing each state. These may be either primary, secondary, success, warning or danger:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Toggle; Toggle::make('is_admin') ->onColor('success') ->offColor('danger')
If you're saving the boolean value using Eloquent, you should be sure to add a boolean cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class User extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'is_admin' => 'boolean', ]; // ...}Checkbox list
The checkbox list component allows you to select multiple values from a list of predefined options:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList; CheckboxList::make('technologies') ->options([ 'tailwind' => 'Tailwind CSS', 'alpine' => 'Alpine.js', 'laravel' => 'Laravel', 'livewire' => 'Laravel Livewire', ])
These options are returned in JSON format. If you're saving them using Eloquent, you should be sure to add an array cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class App extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'technologies' => 'array', ]; // ...}You may organize options into columns by using the columns() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList; CheckboxList::make('technologies') ->options([ 'tailwind' => 'Tailwind CSS', 'alpine' => 'Alpine.js', 'laravel' => 'Laravel', 'livewire' => 'Laravel Livewire', ]) ->columns(2)
This method accepts the same options as the columns() method of the grid. This allows you to responsively customize the number of columns at various breakpoints.
You may also allow users to toggle all checkboxes at once using the bulkToggleable() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList; CheckboxList::make('technologies') ->options([ 'tailwind' => 'Tailwind CSS', 'alpine' => 'Alpine.js', 'laravel' => 'Laravel', 'livewire' => 'Laravel Livewire', ]) ->bulkToggleable()Populating automatically from a relationship
You may employ the relationship() method to configure a relationship to automatically retrieve and save options from:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList; CheckboxList::make('technologies') ->relationship('technologies', 'name')To set this functionality up, you must also follow the instructions set out in the field relationships section. If you're using the admin panel, you can skip this step.
You may customize the database query that retrieves options using the third parameter of the relationship() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder; CheckboxList::make('technologies') ->relationship('technologies', 'name', fn (Builder $query) => $query->withTrashed())If you'd like to customize the label of each option, maybe to be more descriptive, or to concatenate a first and last name, you should use a virtual column in your database migration:
$table->string('full_name')->virtualAs('concat(first_name, \' \', last_name)');use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList; CheckboxList::make('participants') ->relationship('participants', 'full_name')Alternatively, you can use the getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing() method to transform the selected option's Eloquent model into a label. But please note, this is much less performant than using a virtual column:
use Filament\Forms\Components\CheckboxList;use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; CheckboxList::make('participants') ->relationship('participants', 'first_name') ->getOptionLabelFromRecordUsing(fn (Model $record) => "{$record->first_name} {$record->last_name}")Radio
The radio input provides a radio button group for selecting a single value from a list of predefined options:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Radio; Radio::make('status') ->options([ 'draft' => 'Draft', 'scheduled' => 'Scheduled', 'published' => 'Published' ])
You can optionally provide descriptions to each option using the descriptions() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Radio; Radio::make('status') ->options([ 'draft' => 'Draft', 'scheduled' => 'Scheduled', 'published' => 'Published' ]) ->descriptions([ 'draft' => 'Is not visible.', 'scheduled' => 'Will be visible.', 'published' => 'Is visible.' ])
Be sure to use the same key in the descriptions array as the key in the options array so the right description matches the right option.
If you want a simple boolean radio button group, with "Yes" and "No" options, you can use the boolean() method:
Radio::make('feedback') ->label('Do you like this post?') ->boolean()
You may wish to display the options inline() with the label:
Radio::make('feedback') ->label('Do you like this post?') ->boolean() ->inline()
Date-time picker
The date-time picker provides an interactive interface for selecting a date and a time.
use Filament\Forms\Components\DatePicker;use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker;use Filament\Forms\Components\TimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at')DatePicker::make('date_of_birth')TimePicker::make('alarm_at')
You may restrict the minimum and maximum date that can be selected with the picker. The minDate() and maxDate() methods accept a DateTime instance (e.g. Carbon), or a string:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DatePicker; DatePicker::make('date_of_birth') ->minDate(now()->subYears(150)) ->maxDate(now())
You may customize the format of the field when it is saved in your database, using the format() method. This accepts a string date format, using PHP date formatting tokens:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DatePicker; DatePicker::make('date_of_birth')->format('d/m/Y')You may also customize the display format of the field, separately from the format used when it is saved in your database. For this, use the displayFormat() method, which also accepts a string date format, using PHP date formatting tokens:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DatePicker; DatePicker::make('date_of_birth')->displayFormat('d/m/Y')
When using the time picker, you may disable the seconds input using the withoutSeconds() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at')->withoutSeconds()You may also customize the input interval for increasing the hours / minutes / seconds using the hoursStep() , minutesStep() or secondsStep() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at') ->hoursStep(2) ->minutesStep(15) ->secondsStep(10)
In some countries, the first day of the week is not Monday. To customize the first day of the week in the date picker, use the forms.components.date_time_picker.first_day_of_week config option, or the firstDayOfWeek() method on the component. 0 to 7 are accepted values, with Monday as 1 and Sunday as 7 or 0:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at')->firstDayOfWeek(7)
There are additionally convenient helper methods to set the first day of the week more semantically:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at')->weekStartsOnMonday()DateTimePicker::make('published_at')->weekStartsOnSunday()To disable specific dates:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('date') ->label('Appointment date') ->minDate(now()) ->maxDate(Carbon::now()->addDays(30)) ->disabledDates(['2022-10-02', '2022-10-05', '2022-10-15'])Timezones
If you'd like users to be able to manage dates in their own timezone, you can use the timezone() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\DateTimePicker; DateTimePicker::make('published_at')->timezone('America/New_York')While dates will still be stored using the app's configured timezone, the date will now load in the new timezone, and it will be converted back when the form is saved.
File upload
The file upload field is based on Filepond.
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachment')
By default, files will be uploaded publicly to your default storage disk.
Please note, to correctly preview images and other files, FilePond requires files to be served from the same domain as the app, or the appropriate CORS headers need to be present. Ensure that the
APP_URLenvironment variable is correct, or modify the filesystem driver to set the correct URL. If you're hosting files on a separate domain like S3, ensure that CORS headers are set up.
To change the disk and directory that files are saved in, and their visibility, use the disk(), directory() and visibility methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachment') ->disk('s3') ->directory('form-attachments') ->visibility('private')Please note, it is the responsibility of the developer to delete these files from the disk if they are removed, as Filament is unaware if they are depended on elsewhere. One way to do this automatically is observing a model event.
By default, a random file name will be generated for newly-uploaded files. To instead preserve the original filenames of the uploaded files, use the preserveFilenames() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachment')->preserveFilenames()You may completely customize how file names are generated using the getUploadedFileNameForStorageUsing() method, and returning a string from the callback:
use Livewire\TemporaryUploadedFile; FileUpload::make('attachment') ->getUploadedFileNameForStorageUsing(function (TemporaryUploadedFile $file): string { return (string) str($file->getClientOriginalName())->prepend('custom-prefix-'); })You can keep the randomly generated file names, while still storing the original file name, using the storeFileNamesIn() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments') ->multiple() ->storeFileNamesIn('attachment_file_names')attachment_file_names will now store the original file name/s of your uploaded files.
You may restrict the types of files that may be uploaded using the acceptedFileTypes() method, and passing an array of MIME types. You may also use the image() method as shorthand to allow all image MIME types.
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('document')->acceptedFileTypes(['application/pdf'])FileUpload::make('image')->image()You may also restrict the size of uploaded files, in kilobytes:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachment') ->minSize(512) ->maxSize(1024)To customize Livewire's default file upload validation rules, including the 12MB file size maximum, please refer to its documentation.
Filepond allows you to crop and resize images before they are uploaded. You can customize this behaviour using the imageResizeMode(), imageCropAspectRatio(), imageResizeTargetHeight() and imageResizeTargetWidth() methods. imageResizeMode() should be set for the other methods to have an effect - either force, cover, or contain.
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('image') ->image() ->imageResizeMode('cover') ->imageCropAspectRatio('16:9') ->imageResizeTargetWidth('1920') ->imageResizeTargetHeight('1080')You may also alter the general appearance of the Filepond component. Available options for these methods are available on the Filepond website.
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachment') ->imagePreviewHeight('250') ->loadingIndicatorPosition('left') ->panelAspectRatio('2:1') ->panelLayout('integrated') ->removeUploadedFileButtonPosition('right') ->uploadButtonPosition('left') ->uploadProgressIndicatorPosition('left')
You may also upload multiple files. This stores URLs in JSON:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments')->multiple()If you're saving the file URLs using Eloquent, you should be sure to add an array cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class Message extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'attachments' => 'array', ]; // ...}You may customize the number of files that may be uploaded, using the minFiles() and maxFiles() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments') ->multiple() ->minFiles(2) ->maxFiles(5)You can also enable the re-ordering of uploaded files using the enableReordering() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments') ->multiple() ->enableReordering()You can add a button to open each file in a new tab with the enableOpen() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments') ->multiple() ->enableOpen()If you wish to add a download button to each file instead, you can use the enableDownload() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload; FileUpload::make('attachments') ->multiple() ->enableDownload()Filament also supports
spatie/laravel-medialibrary. See our plugin documentation for more information.
Rich editor
The rich editor allows you to edit and preview HTML content, as well as upload images.
use Filament\Forms\Components\RichEditor; RichEditor::make('content')
You may enable / disable toolbar buttons using a range of convenient methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\RichEditor; RichEditor::make('content') ->toolbarButtons([ 'attachFiles', 'blockquote', 'bold', 'bulletList', 'codeBlock', 'h2', 'h3', 'italic', 'link', 'orderedList', 'redo', 'strike', 'undo', ])RichEditor::make('content') ->disableToolbarButtons([ 'attachFiles', 'codeBlock', ])RichEditor::make('content') ->disableAllToolbarButtons() ->enableToolbarButtons([ 'bold', 'bulletList', 'italic', 'strike', ])You may customize how images are uploaded using configuration methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\RichEditor; RichEditor::make('content') ->fileAttachmentsDisk('s3') ->fileAttachmentsDirectory('attachments') ->fileAttachmentsVisibility('private')Markdown editor
The markdown editor allows you to edit and preview markdown content, as well as upload images using drag and drop.
use Filament\Forms\Components\MarkdownEditor; MarkdownEditor::make('content')
You may enable / disable toolbar buttons using a range of convenient methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\MarkdownEditor; MarkdownEditor::make('content') ->toolbarButtons([ 'attachFiles', 'bold', 'bulletList', 'codeBlock', 'edit', 'italic', 'link', 'orderedList', 'preview', 'strike', ])MarkdownEditor::make('content') ->disableToolbarButtons([ 'attachFiles', 'codeBlock', ])MarkdownEditor::make('content') ->disableAllToolbarButtons() ->enableToolbarButtons([ 'bold', 'bulletList', 'edit', 'italic', 'preview', 'strike', ])You may customize how images are uploaded using configuration methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\MarkdownEditor; MarkdownEditor::make('content') ->fileAttachmentsDisk('s3') ->fileAttachmentsDirectory('attachments') ->fileAttachmentsVisibility('private')Hidden
The hidden component allows you to create a hidden field in your form that holds a value.
use Filament\Forms\Components\Hidden; Hidden::make('token')Repeater
The repeater component allows you to output a JSON array of repeated form components.
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater;use Filament\Forms\Components\Select;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ TextInput::make('name')->required(), Select::make('role') ->options([ 'member' => 'Member', 'administrator' => 'Administrator', 'owner' => 'Owner', ]) ->required(), ]) ->columns(2)
We recommend that you store repeater data with a JSON column in your database. Additionally, if you're using Eloquent, make sure that column has an array cast.
As evident in the above example, the component schema can be defined within the schema() method of the component:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ TextInput::make('name')->required(), // ... ])If you wish to define a repeater with multiple schema blocks that can be repeated in any order, please use the builder.
Repeaters may have a certain number of empty items created by default, using the defaultItems() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->defaultItems(3)You may set a label to customize the text that should be displayed in the button for adding a repeater item:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->createItemButtonLabel('Add member')
You may also prevent the user from adding items, deleting items, or moving items inside the repeater:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->disableItemCreation() ->disableItemDeletion() ->disableItemMovement()You may customize the number of items that may be created, using the minItems() and maxItems() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->minItems(1) ->maxItems(10)Collapsible
The repeater may be collapsible() to optionally hide content in long forms:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->collapsible()You may collapse all items by default:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->collapsed()Cloning items
You may allow repeater items to be duplicated using the cloneable() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->cloneable()Populating automatically from a relationship
You may employ the relationship() method of the repeater to configure a relationship to automatically retrieve and save repeater items:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->relationship() ->schema([ // ... ])To set this functionality up, you must also follow the instructions set out in the field relationships section. If you're using the admin panel, you can skip this step.
Ordering items
By default, ordering relationship repeater items is disabled. This is because your related model needs an sort column to store the order of related records. To enable ordering, you may use the orderable() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->relationship() ->schema([ // ... ]) ->orderable()This assumes that your related model has a sort column.
If you use something like spatie/eloquent-sortable with an order column such as order_column, you may pass this in to orderable():
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('qualifications') ->relationship() ->schema([ // ... ]) ->orderable('order_column')Grid layout
You may organize repeater items into columns by using the grid() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ // ... ]) ->grid(2)This method accepts the same options as the columns() method of the grid. This allows you to responsively customize the number of grid columns at various breakpoints.
Item labels
You may add a label for repeater items using the itemLabel() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Repeater;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Repeater::make('members') ->schema([ TextInput::make('name') ->lazy(), ]) ->itemLabel(fn (array $state): ?string => $state['name'] ?? null),Any fields that you use from $state should be reactive() or lazy() if you wish to see the item label update live as you use the form.
Using $get() to access parent field values
All form components are able to use $get() and $set() to access another field's value. However, you might experience unexpected behaviour when using this inside the repeater's schema.
This is because $get() and $set(), by default, are scoped to the current repeater item. This means that you are able to interact with another field inside that repeater item easily without knowing which repeater item the current form component belongs to.
The consequence of this, is that you may be confused when you are unable to interact with a field outside the repeater. We use ../ syntax to solve this problem - $get('../../parent_field_name').
Consider your form has this data structure:
[ 'client_id' => 1, 'repeater' => [ 'item1' => [ 'service_id' => 2, ], ],]You are trying to retrieve the value of client_id from inside the repeater item.
$get() is relative to the current repeater item, so $get('client_id') is looking for $get('repeater.item1.client_id').
You can use ../ to go up a level in the data structure, so $get('../client_id') is $get('repeater.client_id') and $get('../../client_id') is $get('client_id').
Builder
Similar to a repeater, the builder component allows you to output a JSON array of repeated form components. Unlike the repeater, which only defines one form schema to repeat, the builder allows you to define different schema "blocks", which you can repeat in any order. This makes it useful for building more advanced array structures.
The primary use of the builder component is to build web page content using predefined blocks. The example below defines multiple blocks for different elements in the page content. On the frontend of your website, you could loop through each block in the JSON and format it how you wish.
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder;use Filament\Forms\Components\FileUpload;use Filament\Forms\Components\MarkdownEditor;use Filament\Forms\Components\Select;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Builder::make('content') ->blocks([ Builder\Block::make('heading') ->schema([ TextInput::make('content') ->label('Heading') ->required(), Select::make('level') ->options([ 'h1' => 'Heading 1', 'h2' => 'Heading 2', 'h3' => 'Heading 3', 'h4' => 'Heading 4', 'h5' => 'Heading 5', 'h6' => 'Heading 6', ]) ->required(), ]), Builder\Block::make('paragraph') ->schema([ MarkdownEditor::make('content') ->label('Paragraph') ->required(), ]), Builder\Block::make('image') ->schema([ FileUpload::make('url') ->label('Image') ->image() ->required(), TextInput::make('alt') ->label('Alt text') ->required(), ]), ])
We recommend that you store builder data with a JSON column in your database. Additionally, if you're using Eloquent, make sure that column has an array cast.
As evident in the above example, blocks can be defined within the blocks() method of the component. Blocks are Builder\Block objects, and require a unique name, and a component schema:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Builder::make('content') ->blocks([ Builder\Block::make('heading') ->schema([ TextInput::make('content')->required(), // ... ]), // ... ])By default, the label of the block will be automatically determined based on its name. To override the block's label, you may use the label() method. Customizing the label in this way is useful if you wish to use a translation string for localization:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder; Builder\Block::make('heading')->label(__('blocks.heading'))Blocks may also have an icon, which is displayed next to the label. The icon() method accepts the name of any Blade icon component:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder; Builder\Block::make('heading')->icon('heroicon-o-bookmark')
You may customize the number of items that may be created, using the minItems() and maxItems() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder;use Filament\Forms\Components\TextInput; Builder::make('content') ->blocks([ // ... ]) ->minItems(1) ->maxItems(10)Collapsible
The builder may be collapsible() to optionally hide content in long forms:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder; Builder::make('content') ->blocks([ // ... ]) ->collapsible()You may collapse all items by default:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Builder; Builder::make('content') ->blocks([ // ... ]) ->collapsed()Tags input
The tags input component allows you to interact with a list of tags.
By default, tags are stored in JSON:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TagsInput; TagsInput::make('tags')
If you're saving the JSON tags using Eloquent, you should be sure to add an array cast to the model property:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class Post extends Model{ protected $casts = [ 'tags' => 'array', ]; // ...}You may allow the tags to be stored in a separated string, instead of JSON. To set this up, pass the separating character to the separator() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TagsInput; TagsInput::make('tags')->separator(',')Tags inputs may have autocomplete suggestions. To enable this, pass an array of suggestions to the suggestions() method:
use Filament\Forms\Components\TagsInput; TagsInput::make('tags') ->suggestions([ 'tailwindcss', 'alpinejs', 'laravel', 'livewire', ])
Filament also supports
spatie/laravel-tags. See our plugin documentation for more information.
Textarea
The textarea allows you to interact with a multi-line string:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Textarea; Textarea::make('description')
You may change the size of the textarea by defining the rows() and cols() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Textarea; Textarea::make('description') ->rows(10) ->cols(20)You may limit the length of the string by setting the minLength() and maxLength() methods. These methods add both frontend and backend validation:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Textarea; Textarea::make('description') ->minLength(50) ->maxLength(500)Key-value
The key-value field allows you to interact with one-dimensional JSON object:
use Filament\Forms\Components\KeyValue; KeyValue::make('meta')
You may customize the labels for the key and value fields using the keyLabel() and valueLabel() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\KeyValue; KeyValue::make('meta') ->keyLabel('Property name') ->valueLabel('Property value')
You may also prevent the user from adding rows, deleting rows, or editing keys:
use Filament\Forms\Components\KeyValue; KeyValue::make('meta') ->disableAddingRows() ->disableDeletingRows() ->disableEditingKeys()You can allow the user to reorder rows within the table:
use Filament\Forms\Components\KeyValue; KeyValue::make('meta') ->reorderable()You may also add placeholders for the key and value fields using the keyPlaceholder() and valuePlaceholder() methods:
use Filament\Forms\Components\KeyValue; KeyValue::make('meta') ->keyPlaceholder('Property name') ->valuePlaceholder('Property value')
Color picker
The color picker component allows you to pick a color in a range of formats.
By default, the component uses HEX format:
use Filament\Forms\Components\ColorPicker; ColorPicker::make('color')
Alternatively, you can use a different format:
use Filament\Forms\Components\ColorPicker; ColorPicker::make('hsl_color')->hsl()ColorPicker::make('rgb_color')->rgb()ColorPicker::make('rgba_color')->rgba()View
Aside from building custom fields, you may create "view" fields which allow you to create custom fields without extra PHP classes.
use Filament\Forms\Components\ViewField; ViewField::make('notifications')->view('filament.forms.components.range-slider')Inside your view, you may interact with the state of the form component using Livewire and Alpine.js.
The $getStatePath() closure may be used by the view to retrieve the Livewire property path of the field. You could use this to wire:model a value, or $wire.entangle it with Alpine.js.
Using Livewire's entangle allows sharing state with Alpine.js:
<x-dynamic-component :component="$getFieldWrapperView()" :id="$getId()" :label="$getLabel()" :label-sr-only="$isLabelHidden()" :helper-text="$getHelperText()" :hint="$getHint()" :hint-action="$getHintAction()" :hint-color="$getHintColor()" :hint-icon="$getHintIcon()" :required="$isRequired()" :state-path="$getStatePath()"> <div x-data="{ state: $wire.entangle('{{ $getStatePath() }}').defer }"> <!-- Interact with the `state` property in Alpine.js --> </div></x-dynamic-component>Or, you may bind the value to a Livewire property using wire:model:
<x-dynamic-component :component="$getFieldWrapperView()" :id="$getId()" :label="$getLabel()" :label-sr-only="$isLabelHidden()" :helper-text="$getHelperText()" :hint="$getHint()" :hint-action="$getHintAction()" :hint-color="$getHintColor()" :hint-icon="$getHintIcon()" :required="$isRequired()" :state-path="$getStatePath()"> <input wire:model.defer="{{ $getStatePath() }}" /></x-dynamic-component>Building custom fields
You may create your own custom field classes and views, which you can reuse across your project, and even release as a plugin to the community.
If you're just creating a simple custom field to use once, you could instead use a view field to render any custom Blade file.
To create a custom field class and view, you may use the following command:
php artisan make:form-field RangeSliderThis will create the following field class:
use Filament\Forms\Components\Field; class RangeSlider extends Field{ protected string $view = 'filament.forms.components.range-slider';}Inside your view, you may interact with the state of the form component using Livewire and Alpine.js.
The $getStatePath() closure may be used by the view to retrieve the Livewire property path of the field. You could use this to wire:model a value, or $wire.entangle it with Alpine.js:
<x-dynamic-component :component="$getFieldWrapperView()" :id="$getId()" :label="$getLabel()" :label-sr-only="$isLabelHidden()" :helper-text="$getHelperText()" :hint="$getHint()" :hint-action="$getHintAction()" :hint-color="$getHintColor()" :hint-icon="$getHintIcon()" :required="$isRequired()" :state-path="$getStatePath()"> <div x-data="{ state: $wire.entangle('{{ $getStatePath() }}').defer }"> <!-- Interact with the `state` property in Alpine.js --> </div></x-dynamic-component>Still need help?
